...The early birthday gift... Last friday, while showing you my outfit of the day, I told youabout my first, pre birthday gift. I was invited by Fred de la Bretoniere to pick out a pairof shoes, or a handbag, of my choice. (It's still one of the greatest birthday gifts ever)

I went with my best shopping-partner, my mum, to Antwerp. It was hard to choose. I'min love with the Chelsea boots from Zara, and Fred de la Bretoniere had a great version of them too but I finally decided to go for some good black winter boots, which will be shown later.I really like FDLB. Their shoes, bags & accessories are from such a great quality and they're really comfortable! They use vegetable tanned leather for their items & every design they create has a soul.

That weekend, the 13th and 14th of september,there was the Antwerp Fashion Festival. Unfortunately I wasn't aible to stay for that event but it was such a great experience to shop at their store. The staff is so friendly and they will help you withany question or pair of shoes you want to try!
